A FEW THINGS TO CROW OVER.

DEMOCRATIC victory in New York
- Fellows, the democratic candidate
for District Attorney, carried New
York by $4,000 majority, while
Brooklyn elects a democratic mayor
by about 5000 plurality. This is an
emphatic endorsement of President
Cleveland's administration in his own
state, and is o strong indication that
the Empire state will be true In 1888
and go Democratic. The result Of
this election puts serious damper on
Col. Fred Grants campaign for the
Presidency and it will require super
human efforts on the part of Mrs
Fred Grant, who practically engineers
the political canvass of her husband
to overcome the odds against them.

To be a member of the Presidential
cabinet is considered a great honor by
American statesmen, notwithstanding
the fact, that the salary connected with
such position is not nearly adequate
to the responsibilities and labors
of the Office, while the duties incident
to the place are the most exacting
and wearing. Of the men, whom
President Cleveland has chosen as
his cabinet officers two had already
to succumb to the mental strain which
their work brings along. Mr.. Man.
ming, secretary of the treasury, had
to take rest on account of his health
and Mr.. Whitney, secretary of the
navy, also was compelled to retire for
recreation. 1t is the earnest desire of
everybody that these eminent states
men may regain their health as rLeir
places would be hard to fill in case of
their permanent retirement.

IT would seem now that all imag-
Unable excuses and pleas are brought
to bear on the pending death sentence
of the Chicago Anarchists. Techni-
calities of law have been used to in
fuence the jurors in their verdict, hun
dreds of petitions for mercy have been
sent to the governor of Illinois and
many seem to be in favor of saving
the necks of these wholesale murder
ers and preventing their deserved
death on the galiows. We don't see
why these wild and dangerous foreign
ers should be shown. any more mer-
cy than our common everyday mur-
derers. Let them be hanged.

Two Reading Lawyers Undertake the
Settlement of a Feud.

READING, November 5 An excit
ing episode took place in the Orphans
Court here this morning Judge
Schwartz was on the bench hearing ar.
guments in a case. The bar was full
of lawyers: Among them were Daniel
E. Schroeder, a nephew of Judge Ra
genman, and John F. Smith. There
has been a long standing grudge be
tween the two over the settlement of
an estate. Schroeder went in also to
get book. They were alone in a room
and what passed between them is
not known, but those In the court
room heard loud words, and immedi-
ately thereafter the double doors lead.
ing into the court room from the law
library opened and Mr.. Smiths figure
appeared, followed by the fists of Mr..
Schroeder, who seemed to be striking
at him from the inside. Mr.. Smiths
eyeglasses fell and as he stumbled back
wards down the steps he almost fell on
his knees.
Quickly recovering himself, he
reached into his hip. pocket. pulled a
thirty.two calibre revolver and through
the half closed door fired at Mr.. Schroe-
der discerned his movement and quick
" darted through the door leading to
the platform, where the Judges bench
IS situated and where Judge Schwartz
was sitting. This undoubtedly saved
his life, as Mr.. Smiths aim was direct
ly on line with the upper portion of
Mr.. Schroeder's body. The ballpassed
through his coat sleeve. The attorneys
sprang 20 their feet and Judge Schwartz
left the bench and cried out for the
tipstaves and lawyers to stop the shoot
ing, and his orders were Obeyed. The
combatants were then separated. Judge
SCHWARTZ will probably call the Offend
ers up on Monday and administer pun
ishment.
